Barcelona (Cornish : Krows Trevelowen, meaning Cross at Trelawne) is a hamlet in the parish of Pelynt in southeast Cornwall, England, UK.
Barcelona (grid reference SX 219 536 ) is a hamlet, in southeast Cornwall, on the A387 road, between Polperro and Looe. It is 3 miles (4.8 km) west of Looe, 2 miles (3.2 km) north of the coast at Talland Bay and 2 miles (3.2 km) southwest of Pelynt, the churchtown of the parish of the same name. [1]
Trelawne Manor (Cornish : Trev Elowen, meaning farm of the elm tree ) lies immediately north of Barcelona and was formerly the ancestral home of the Trelawney family (a Cornish family tracing back to the Medevial period). It is now a leisure complex and holiday park. Jonathan Trelawney named it "Barcelona" in honor of his son who died defending the Catalan city during the War of the Spanish Succession. This is one of the few cases where the tribute is reciprocal, since Barcelona also dedicates a street to him in the Ciutat Vella district.
